The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Christine Nagel's H24 Herbes Vives by Hermès, launched in 2024, captures the essence of urban nature after a rain shower. The fragrance opens with a burst of herbal notes that read as fresh and verdant, seamlessly merging into the sweetness of pear granita. This crisp fruitiness is then grounded by Physcool, an innovative molecule that adds a refreshing aquatic touch. H24 Herbes Vives continues Hermès' tradition of sophisticated plant-based scents, designed for the contemporary man on the move.

How to wear it

Apply lightly — the herbal top notes are bright but transient. The pear granita will linger for several hours, followed by the refreshing base of Physcool that stays close to skin rather than projecting far into the air.
